Sculpting & Forming

  This miniature pika figurine is only 26 mm high and 31 mm long. Pikas are small animals that look like hamsters, however, in reality they are close relatives of hares with short legs, rounded ears and tails that are completely invisible from the outside.   This is a truly unique figurine. It is made of natural clay, carefully drawn by hand with engobe. But the eyes are made of black clay and additionally stained with black engobe for greater clarity. This miniature sculpture will be a unique gift for a loved one. Also will please the lover of the tea ceremony as a tea figurine. The pika figurine is not afraid of boiling water, but it is fragile.   I can make a figure to order according to your sketch or I will make a sketch according to your wishes. If you have any questions or suggestions please write to me.   With the best wishes for health and good mood, Igor (the author and creator of the figurines).

Raccoon height 1.57 in, width 1.46 in. The raccoon is an intelligent animal. He knows how to adapt to new situations. Interestingly, this pure creature actually washes its food before eating it. Seeing a raccoon as your spirit animal is a sign that you must adapt in life and pay attention to the bigger picture. The raccoon is a symbol of self-confidence, adaptability and resourcefulness. This is a master of disguise and secrecy. This animal represents intelligence, illusion, self-defense, and courage. If you think that a raccoon is your totem animal, you need to have one at home. It is a wonderful tea pet for the lover of the gongfu tea ceremony. The raccoon is made of white clay with the addition of black. I used some black glaze to bring out the details and the coat.

 Hedgehog height 1.38 in, length 1.77 in. Getting into your hands, Hedgehog and his friend Snail only evoke positive emotions! Nice texture not prickly but expressive needles, smiling face, black kind eyes and big ears. Hedgehog is a symbol of self-defense. In Feng shui  the Hedgehog is a symbol of security, openness, friendliness and joy. Prickles pierce the world of darkness and either defeats it or gives it a jolt. Ancient legends say that Hedgehog is wise enough, and even God listened to his advice! In China, such an animal is associated with kindness. Hedgehog brings joy and prosperity to the house. The Snail is a symbol of patience and perseverance because of its slowness. Time (the burden on the shoulders) does not deprive the Snail of the ability to victoriously raise antennae above its head. Due to the horns appearing and disappearing, the Snail is considered a symbol of the cyclic nature of the processes. It is also a symbol of time and evolution. Through the labyrinth of the clam shell spiral, man comprehends the meaning of time. Because the Snail always hides its body in the house, it is a symbol of modesty. This feature reminds about thrift and even greed - «I carry everything with me». I’ve also given this product its own individual meaning. For me, above all, Hedgehog and Snail are a symbol of friendship and alliance between the two personalities. And what he can become for you is for you to decide. In any case, unusual and lovely sculpture. It will please you or it will be a beautiful gift with meaning for your loved ones. It is made of three types of clay. The main one is white, but after two burns it has become a slightly beige (sandy) color. The eyes and nose of the Hedgehog are made of black clay. Its legs and the sink of the snail are made of terracotta clay. To accentuate the texture of the leaf, a glossy black glaze was applied to it, giving the effect of depth. If you look closely, you can see the pores. All our products are copyrighted. They are and will be in a single copy. Each product has meaning and philosophy.

Height of the dog 1.97 in, width (front view) 1.57 in. The dog has a minimalistic design. He seemed to have descended from Japanese prints. Despite the minimalistic features, he has a well-developed form. The dog is made of clay, but very much resembles a jade figurine. Dog as you know it is a friend of man. He personifies dedication, courage and vigilance. It is a symbol of protection and self-sacrifice. I believe that a dog figurine should be in every home, especially if it is unusual and handmade. This figurine is perfect for any interior. Will be a wonderful guardian of your tea tray. I am sure that the dog will delight you and will certainly attract the attention of your guests. This mini statue is made of white fireclay clay. Covered with engobe and transparent food glaze. The materials that are used in the manufacture of the dog are safe. This figure is not afraid of water, but fragile. Thanks for your interest in the figurines. I hope you become one of the owners of this unusual figure in a single copy.     Best regards, Igor (author and creator of the products of the Terracotta GRYF workshop).

And so it turned out to be a cartoon cat. When I look at him, my mood immediately rises. I hope you will have the same reaction when you see this cat. This figurine will look great on a table, on a bookshelf or on a tea tray as a tea figurine. The cat is made of black and white clay, painted with engobe. The coat and details are slightly accentuated with black glaze. Natural and safe materials are used for the figure. When shipped, it will be well packed in a branded box. A little about caring for the product - the cat is fragile, so do not give it to children as a toy. The cat figurine is not afraid of water, but does not need to be washed in the dishwasher.

Ceramic bowl diameter 2.95 -3.15 inches, height 2.28 inches, capacity 80 ml. The frog is a harbinger of spring rains and the awakening of nature.  I call this bowl the HEATER OF HEAT. When, after hibernation, the frog woke up, climbed a tree in search of the warm rays of the sun to warm up. Outside, the bowl has a wood texture. It seems that the frog is sitting on a tree and striving to reach its top. Inside, the color of the wood is the same, but here the glaze has laid down so that it reminds me of the sun ( seen in the photo). The bowl and the frog are made of clay. They are covered with engobe and food glaze. Food safe. The bowl is very tactilely textured, but the frog is smooth. This is a great option for unity with nature and admiring an unusual bowl with its inhabitant. I am sure that lovers of beauty will appreciate it.  The bowl will be carefully packed and safely shipped in the original box. Thanks for your interest in the figurines. Please, feel free to ask me any questions about the item and contact me to see more close up pics of any details you want.

Figure height 2.17 in, width (front view) 2.00 in. I like music. While listening to the next track, I thought: "I need to try to make an unusual beatmaker." A few days later, the idea came true. Before you is a forest beatmaker Hare. He stuffs the beats on a classic drum machine. Such a figurine is the only one in the world, I have not seen any analogues. I am very happy with the result. Unfortunately, only a connoisseur will be able to understand the figure and appreciate it. DJ Hare wears a Japanese haori shirt with an embroidered Hotei logo on the back. On the head is a trendy bini. The beatmaker is holding a drum machine. The figurine will be a cool gift for a composer, arranger, DJ, record producer. It is also an unusual tea pet for lovers of the gongfu tea ceremony. The hare is made of clay, covered with engobe and the details are highlighted with black glaze. All materials from which the figurine is made are natural and safe. The product is not afraid of water, but it does not need to be washed in the dishwasher.

You will also receive a product passport as a gift (a sketch of a hare drawn by me).  Thank you for your interest in my products. I will be glad to see you again in the Terracotta GRYF workshop. Best wishes, Igor (author and craftsman).

A monk with a monkey is a one-piece figurine. Its height 2.83 in, width 1.42 in, depth 1.89 in. A monk is associated with peace, enlightenment and patience. The monkey is dexterous and agile.

For me it is a symbol of patience and friendship. The figurine is made of clay, covered with engobe and food safe glaze. Not afraid of water, but I do not recommend washing in a dishwasher. Very fragile and not a toy for children. Thanks for your interest in my figurines. Hopefully they will find their place on your tea tray, shelf or table.
